17 Dream 2016 Emmy Nominations That We Probably Won't See

Be honest. There isn't a single year that passes in which you agreed with every single nominations at a major awards show. It's impossible to do right by the wealth of talent in Hollywood. This year's Emmy nominees will be announced on Thursday, and I am anticipated a lot of sighing fans. In that spirit, here are some dream 2016 Emmy nominations that probably won't come true, but are definitely deserving.

Like, call me a weirdo, but while I still haven't watched Transparent or Better Call Saul, I could talk your ear off about Another Period,Supergirl,Preacher, Man in the High Castle, Fear The Walking Dead, certain moments/performances on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and plenty of shows that aren't likely to be nominated for Emmy Awards despite being top notch. The lack of awards Hannibal, it makes me too sad to think about.

I'm not overreaching, here. I wouldn't suggest, say, someone like awards darling Lin-Manuel Miranda. That would be an impossible dream because the man behind (and in front of) Hamilton actually didn't do any primetime television this year. Any of my picks could prove me wrong and get nominated. It's just that this is such an amazing time for television, with quality programming across more platforms than any one human has the ability to reach. That means that some people and some shows are bound to be left out. Let's all brace ourselves together for what could be the inevitable.

11. The Carmichael Show

12. Kit Harington, Game of Thrones

Peter Dinklage, Diana Rigg, and Lena Headey tend to get most of the awards focus, but this season belonged to Jon Snow. I would also love to see nominations for Maisie Williams, Sophie Turner, and Season 6 guest actor Ian McShane.
